Basics: When you click a contraption, if you have the ingredients in your stash, it will start running. They all have different run times. After it's complete, you click it again to collect the product it produced. Most contraptions put the products they produce directly into your stash. However, "variable payout" contraptions (such as Fat Bats, Irish Tavern, Santa, etc) put the products in your GIFT BOX.

Contraption Shares: For a few contraptions, when you collect from them, you can share the product with your neighbors. NOTE: Getting contraption products from your friends does NOT count toward awards nor quests. You need to produce them yourself.

Fertilize Contraptions: As of 7/25/13, you can 'fertilize' contraptions with bat guano to make them ready instantly. Different contraptions require different amounts. When you click on one, you'll get a popup telling you how much time is left and how much guano it takes, and asking you to confirm or cancel.

"Max Guano" is now shown in the chart below and on the item detail pages for all contraptions. This is the amount of guano it takes to instantly run a contraption that has just been started. It takes progressively less guano the longer a contraption has already been running (except for items that require only 1 guano.)

Ingredient Chart: Scroll down to the bottom of the page or click here for the INGREDIENT CHART.

This chart shows you which products and plants are used as ingredients for contraptions.

NOTES: This chart should start out sorted alphabetically by ingredient. Click the contraption HEADER twice to sort by contraption. Click the contraption link to see complete details for the contraption.
